”Capital New York:“http://www.capitalnewyork.com/article/media/2012/03/5537522/life-after-vice-former-editor-jesse-pearson-talks-about-his-new-magazi:

Pearson, a 36-year-old Philly native and Hampshire College alum who cut his teeth as an editor at Index before landing the top masthead slot at Vice in 2002, and his co-founder in the venture, writer and novelist Sam McPheeters, are busy gearing up for the launch of Exploded View.

The new quarterly, named for the type of technical drawings that show how objects get assembled, will fall somewhere in the center of the lit-mag spectrum—neither a twee indie journal tailored to precious 20-somethings nor a highbrow M.F.A.-department circular.
